# 28-Jun-2026 — sort album indexes by event date

## [build 723](https://github.com/nbarrett/ngx-ramblers/actions/runs/28329812071) — [commit 7fbc8cb](https://github.com/nbarrett/ngx-ramblers/commit/7fbc8cb25dff90b00fede78c91f740846fc65666)

## What's new

Album index pages can now sort by Event Date, so photo and event collections can be shown newest-first by the date of the walk or group event rather than by title, path or creation date.

## Where to find it

Open the site editor for an album index page and choose Event Date from the Sort Field dropdown, then choose the required sort direction.

## Technical changes

- Added eventDate as an album index sort field.
- Carried carousel eventDate values onto index card columns so the existing sort logic can use them.
